REMOTE PRINTER SPOOLER ABSTRACT
Scott Mcclure ESI
6/17/85
ABSTRACT:
The remote printer spooler is a method to transfer print queue files
between TOPS-20 machines using DECNET. It is activated by using the
/DESTINATION: switch to specify the remote node where you want the file to
be sent. (Example: PRINT filename /DESTINATION:nodename::) The file is
then sent to the target machine and queued as a print file. All the normal
print switches can still be used and multiple files can be sent under a
single queue entry by using wildcards or commas between filenames.
The system is setup to queue transferred files as user REMOTE. To
facilitate identification, the real user name is added to the NOTE field
of the queue on the target machine if no other NOTE is specified.
